This is exactly what happens when institutions meant to protect people instead protect themselves. Evil thrives when those in power look the other way — whether it's corrupt police, complicit officials, or a media that refuses to ask hard questions. These survivors deserved better, and so does the truth.

It's a war for your attention. If your attention is entangled with continuous dopamine hits from your environment then you are slave.

I’ve been reviewing LCA location data and came across a pattern worth flagging for discussion.

At 2018 156th Ave NE, Bellevue, WA 98007, I’m seeing a high concentration of separate employers all listing the same exact address as their worksite. On the visualization tool I’m using, the address resolves to ~40+ distinct entities clustered at the same coordinate.

A few observations: • The address corresponds to a shared office / serviced workspace location (Regus / Bellevue Technology Center). • That explains why multiple companies can legally register or receive mail there. • However, in an H-1B LCA context, the issue is not registration — it’s whether an H-1B employee actually performs work at the listed site.

From a compliance standpoint, this raises several questions: • Are these employers listing the address as a virtual or placeholder location? • Do the LCAs reflect actual physical worksites where employees are present? • Were proper posting notices completed at the real work locations if employees are elsewhere? • Are wages being anchored to this location while work occurs at unlisted third-party sites?

I’m not making claims about intent or fraud. I’m pointing out a structural anomaly: • Dozens of unrelated employers • Same address • Same geocode • Same metropolitan wage area • No obvious distinction by suite or floor in the filings I’ve reviewed

Individually, a shared office address can be legitimate. At this scale, it becomes harder to reconcile with normal office occupancy without additional facts.

I’m curious how others here evaluate: • When shared-office density crosses from normal to suspect in LCA filings • What indicators best distinguish legitimate coworking use vs. address-only usage • Whether others have seen similar clustering patterns elsewhere

Interested in perspectives, especially from anyone with WHD, USCIS, or compliance experience.

I remember those days. Mini-Thins were my preferred brand. I think that was around the mid 1990s.

Here's my real-life takeaway: I grew up in Oklahoma City and then moved to Redmond, WA in 2002—right in the heart of the internet boom. Back then, my neighborhood was mostly White (about 80%), Asian (10%), and a small mix of others. I still live in the same neighborhood today—and now, it's largely Indian. Even the Costco feels like a slice of India. Sometimes, I catch myself thinking I’ve walked into another country.

I attended the very first Astricon and I'm familiar with what a Jitter Buffer is. Those were great times during advent of VOIP and playing around with Asterisk.

The State Supreme Court is likely composed in a manner favorable to their interests. A similar situation occurred in Washington State when the capital gains tax was enacted, despite its prohibition under the state constitution.

You're right about dark money in WA State. I've searched donation databases many times and have seen how Democrats use donation mules through ActBlue. But to be fair, I've also been used as a donation mule for Republican donations—so both sides are guilty of these tactics. That said, ActBlue's operations were particularly blatant.

Rubio has significantly surpassed expectations. It is remarkable to observe what an individual can achieve when fully supported by their superior.

A truck driver arrived on Monday to deliver 10 pallets, but he didn't know any English. I'm guessing he might be from Ukraine or a nearby country. Since he couldn't understand my directions for where to back up, I had to get creative. It's quite surprising how someone can drive an 18-wheeler without knowing English!
